You need 3 eggs, 1 glass of sugar, butter... Nope, you need а few minutes for the rules, 15-30 minutes to play and a great sweets mood. And yes, no need to clean up the kitchen after that.

MasterSweets: The Card Game is an easy to learn, fast to play, family-friendly game with great repeatability for 1 to 5 players. MasterSweets uses unique game mechanic and has 4 different variants:

"MasterSweets" - competitive

“Clash of Sweets” - player elimination

“Sweets Workshop” - cooperative

“Lonely in The Kitchen” - solo

MasterSweets - core competitive game variant

In "MasterSweets" you will take up the role of one of the 16 fancier confectioners, competing to present the best confectionery delights. MasterSweets uses unique game mechanic based on the set collection mechanic. In the game, a set of ingredient cards are ordered on the table- they form the cookbook. Each row or column of the cookbook represents one recipe. The players will try to collect the full set of ingredient cards that a recipe contains in order to complete it. But each player may also exchange a card from his hand with a card from the cookbook. This way the player changes the set of cards in the collections that all players are trying to collect.

Clash of Sweets - player elimination game variant

In “Clash of Sweets” each player will create his own unique cookbook and will try to steal his opponents‘ recipes. This way, he reveals other players‘ culinary secrets and their unique cookbooks decrease. After the last recipe from a player’s cookbook is stolen, the player must leave the game. The last surviving player with recipes that have not been revealed is the winner.

Lonely in The Kitchen - solo game variant

To be a true master of the sweets, you need a lot of workouts. The best workout is when you are confronted with your own best achievements. The solo game variant "Lonely in The Kitchen" has the same gameplay as the core game “MasterSweets” for two players. The goal in the “Lonely in the kitchen” game is to collect more victory points at the end of the game than your fictional opponent George “The cake” (a dummy player).

My name is Tihomir Yunakov and I am desperately keen on board games. I've been playing board games since my early childhood. Back in the times the board games were not what they are today and I used to "invent" a few new games to play with my friends. We enjoyed them a lot. I even played them alone against virtual opponents in order to make them better and more balanced. It was then since I started dreaming of people all around the world playing my games.

I have finished a degree in Computer Science at Sofia Univesity, in Bulgaria, my home country. The next 10 years I have worked as a software engineer, still being passionate about board games.

A year ago, the company that I was working for was closed. Instead of a setback, I viewed this as a sign of fate and as an opportunity to take the time and create my own board game. Since then I've been giving all my best to develop MasterSweets. I found adherents in the face of Viktoria and Vesela which believed in and supported me and the project. We have spent the last year in the development of Master Sweets, designing it to bring so much fun so that you will not be able to stop playing. We managed to create a game that has many different variations but remains easy to learn and fast to play at the same time. We've really had a lot of fun making and testing this game. Now it's your turn to enjoy MasterSweets.

Risks and challenges

We have done about 95% of the illustration work and graphics design of the game. We have done a tremendous amount of research on costs and risks for game production in Bulgaria and worldwide, and have several options in place based on the total funding we receive:

- If the campaign is funded at a modest level, the game will be produced by one of the several Bulgarian producers, and all fulfillment will be handled by our in-house team.
- If it is funded at a larger scale, we will be producing the game by one of the biggest Chineses production companies with extensive experience and a proven track record in the industry, and handling fulfillment either by a mix of our in-house team and fulfillment centers.

The timeline is realistic with enough leeway to offset any unforeseen setback.
